90 one OF gloom. Excitement and horror.
First came the dynamite suicide OF LinRG,
which occurred early In the morning. This
produced profound sensation AMONG tho ro-
naming six Anarchists, and all day long they
made anxious inquiries as to his condition
When they were told OF his death, little be-
fore 8 o'clock, they received tho news In
silence. Lingg passed away at 2:4b. Twenty
minutes before that time his heart began TO
fit. and It was plain to DR.. Moyor that no was
going.
Up to within I've minutes Of his death no was
conscious. and then he began TO fall rapidly.
Two minutes before the fatal moment his eyes
opened, no cast q look around him. ana MS
head dropped. and that was the last Sign OF
life manifested. Meyer immediately lephoned
for the Coroner. Tho Inquest Will % heid THIS
evening
The nswspaper men and deputies instructive
IL raised their hats as they passed Int tho
presence of death. The air was fetid with the
pungent odor OF ether. There on the table lay
the blood stained corpse Of LinRR. There the
curtain foil on tho last scene Of tragic life.
Only cabinet maker. bot he had made o stir
In his day "They that take BY the sword shall
perish by the sword" He had made bombs to
destroy capitalists and wreck society. and, Lo,
no himself persisted by tho bomb. The
body OF him who was so defiant but few
short hours ago lay limp on the table wrapped
in tho blanket which had warmed him his
naked body since 8 o'clock this morning. The
dried clots OF blood hung to his mangled LIP
and caked on the bandages. Gore stresked
his sturdy arms and his broad chest.
The bailiffs, Beers and Cleveland. and tho re-
porter, Klein. who had held up his head In his
agony this morning. stood by his side and
watched till his last breath departed.
He is dead," whispered Doors. and tho sus-
pense was over.
AN ANARCHIST TO THE LAST.
Ldngg proved himself a truo Anarchist Two
hours before his death. while being cared for
BY the physicians and their assistants, MIR.
Klein, who rendered valuable aid to tho doc-
tors, wns about to change the hot water bot
ties at his feet. when the bomb max
or Strengthened up and. flashing look
of defiance ut the "Hirelins OF the capitalistic
press" whom he recognized. he drew his feet
up out OF the reach Of the man whose paper he
believed had convicted him. II LinRg could
have destroyed the man before him. his iory
chances proved that he would have done 1t with
pleasure.
Tho suicide of Lingg IL In keep with his
whole life. He was born at Mannheim. city
in the grand duohy Of Baden. "a years ago.
His mother and relatives. quite well-to-do
people. are still residents Of that city. When
boy he learned tho carpenter trade. and Joined
tho Bocislistic party in his native town. In
1879 he at first began to read Johann
Most's pamphlets and became an enthusiast
Supporter Of Most's advocacy Of force and dy-
Mantle He severed his connection with the
6ocialistio party. The Socialists were too
mild and slow going for him. and he fought them
as bitterly as the capitalists. To harm their
cause. he denounced them as the authorities
and thus caused the arrest Of many In 1888
he was forced to leave his native town. After
good deal Of wandering about Germany he
finally landed in Switzerland. There he CON-
tinued to fight the blues" as tho Social
Democrats are called by the red followers Of
Most. 1t was then the Sozial Demokrat. the
Official organ OF tho German Socialists, pub
lishsd q notice declaring Lingg to be an in
former and spy of tho German Government.
In 1885 he came to America. In New York
he stayed only few days and proceeded far
Their West to Chicago. Here he Joined tho
north side group OF the Internationals. On tho
night Of May 4 he intended to operate with
bonbs on the north side. He had made fifty
bombs. He was arrested By detectives after
desperate struggle.
Had Lingg survived until tomorrow It would
have necessitated a temporary respite. first
because the Governor was convinced OF his In
sanity. and second because his comrades could
not be executed while his life hung In the bal
snce.
